XYith the Girls' Federation party welcoming freshmen girls and the liberal paddlings applied to freshmen boys, we felt more at home. Our status was firmly established when the lofty seniors took us to 'iThree Smart Girls Grow Up and we appropriately responded with The lYizard of Oz. Presently the sophisticated sophomores invited us to a party and taught us to dance so that. in our return function, we felt competent as hosts. Among our first year achievements we list: two members of the first football team, three track men, four boxers and wrestlers, thirteen in the high school band, four in the pep band, seven in the district band, and three girls on the all-girls' volley ball team. Next year we intend to make a better showing. XYe wish to thank our advisers, Mr. McDowell, Mr. Paulsen, and Mrs. Busby, for their help.

However. as we desperately foreed one foot to follow the path of the other. we were led through the immemorable joys of the llig-Sister Party. 'l'he Senior lfrosh Show. and the all-high girls' playday. l,ater somewhat more poised and eonsiderable less frightened, we eoneluded the year with our own idea, the Freshman mixer. This year we have aeeomplished a great many things besides enjoying the fact that we were no longer the very youngest class in the building. Xl'e entertained the lfrosli at a swell party and were feted in return. Members of our elass have brought distinction time and again to our high sehool and one of the greatest was the winning of the State Championship Boxing title held by our football-playing elass president, lllelvin Secman. Members also turned out for wrestling, football, basketball, track, baseball and we placed two members on the high sehool debate squad. Our girls brought honor upon us by winning the all-high basketball ehampionship. Hur good times we owe to our advisers. Miss llall, Mr. Peek. and lllr. Vollmer.

The ice was soon broken, however, and at the beginning of our sopho- more year. our general interest gained still more momentum. XYith seven football lettermen and the intramural basketball championship, our athletic abilities were clearly shown. Under the direction of our three advisers, Miss Howard, Mr, Henry, and Mr. Moses, athletes and scholars alike were at the top of the ladder, XYe entered our junior year with high hopes and under the direction of our tireless adviser, Miss Howard, Growing Painsu was presented as our class play in the fall. Numerous juniors represented us in football, basketball. and track, and again we tucked the intramural basketball championship under our belts. The spring saw another monument to our energies, the Junior Prom. ln accordance with the class emblem, the setting was an lndian camp. XYith the completion of three years in Colfax High School, the Class of '41 looks anxiously forward to their fourth year, hoping even greater honors can be gained.

Nevertheless, all the machinery moved smoothly, despite the fact that there were many handicaps to overcome. All members cooperated when assignments were given and when we once got started it didn't take long to get the annual ready for the printer and binder.

ROUND the middle of last October four students, Berdina Beckwith .lean and Don Maurer, and XVendell Hopkins got together with a com- mon desire to organize an Art Club. They found that other students were in- terested in doing a common type of work-drawing, painting and signwork. They formed a club with Mr. Gasser as adviser. Shortly afterwards a constitution was drawn up, The purpose of the club as expressed in the constitution is to stimulate and develop the artistic interests and abilities of the students and to advertise the activities of the high school by serving the various organizations in the school. The Art Club has been the answer to the school's demand for student expression through art. Their first big project was the advertising of the Hi-jinks with placards, signs, pictures all hand-made and painted by the members. This has been followed by drawings and sign work for the Christmas program, the Senior Class Play, and other events. The Art Club now has its own art room where it has easels, a mineo- scope and its material. The members take a great interest in dropping into the Art Room during free periods to try their talent on projects they are interested in doing. Membership is open to all students who are in sympathy with the aims and ideals of the club provided they maintain an academic average of C. Berdina Beckwith.

FORENSJI eft to right: Doris Pierson, Bob Sanders, Bill LaFu1lette, Gordon Edgren, Mr. Horsley, coach LTHOUGII the National Forensic League was already a well-known honorary organization for outstanding orators and debaters, a chapter at Colfax High School was not formed until this year. But despite the late start an encouraging number of our students were honored with its mem- bership and with degrees of honor and excellence as well. Under the prevailing set up of debate, each member of the squad partici- pated in nine decision debates and from six to nine practice debates, which earned for each individual the Forensic honors. During the season, the debate squad, made up of Doris Pierson, Gordon Edgren, Bob Sanders, and Bill Lalfollette, made a fine showing both as individual speakers and as teams. They won the second place trophy in the county, and by winning five of the eight decision debates in the district, qualified for participation in the state tournament at Pullman. Here they were eliminated only after winning their first two contests. Besides those on the debate squad, others who were honored by the Forensic League include Bob Stotler, for oratory, Jane Bryant, for declama- tion, and Esther Davis, for debate last year. ORATORTCAJL TROPHY ROBERT STOTLER S STATE winner of the oratorical contest sponsored by the American Legion and its auxiliary, Robert Stotler for the second time brought the Governor's Cup home to Colfax High School. This trophy is the gift of Governor Clarence D. Martin and is to be engraved each year with the name of the winner in the state finals of the oratorical contest. Stot1er's name appears twice on the cup. The cup is perpetual so will not become the permanent possession of any school. After winning the title as the best orator in the state of XYashington in the final contest held at Glympia on March 30, Stotler went to San Francisco. accompanied by his coach, Miss Mabel Howard, to participate in the regional contest on April 9. He was judged first place winner from among state winners from Oregon, XVashington, California, Utah and Hawaii. Two days later at Nampa, Idaho, he competed with the other regional winner to see who would represent the VVest in the national contest to be held in Boston. Mass., on April 15. Stotler lost the decision by one point. Nevertheless he has brought honor to himself, his high school, his home community, and the state of VVashington by going so far in such an important contest. Before entering the state finals, Stotler had to win the county contest held in Garfield on March 9 and the district contest held in Pullman on March 23. As he was the only one entering from the high school, no local contest was held. FFA .ITUDGIING TEAMS lstt to rigllt, front row: .Xl Teal, Lauren Lancaster, Calvin Poffenroth, Alvene Leinweber.

Colfax scored fifth place with LeRoy Cocking winning the gold medal for the highest individual score. Other meets in which our team took part and made high scores were held at XYalla NYalla, Oakesdale, and Pullman. Grain judging proved to be another field in which Mr. Vollmer's students ranked near the top. Taking part in the eastern Xliashington meet at Endi- cott, and the state contest at Pullman, the Colfax team came out in second and third places. respectively. The potato judging team took part in a contest at Riverside and one at l'ullman. ln each instance a high score was made. ln the two years Mr. Vollmer has been teaching vocational agriculture at Colfax, his classroom walls have become covered with banners, blankets and cups which were giv- en as awards until it now looks something like a college boy's room in a fraternity house. LLBBARY CLUB HE Library Club was organized only a few months ago for the purpose of devel- oping an interest in the library as well as reading interest and appreciation among the students.

More than a hundred students took part in the evening's entertainment which was highly praised for its variety and high caliber. The most outstanding part oft the program was that it brought out a great deal of fine talent in the high school that had never been seen before. So well was the event received that it is pretty sure of becoming an estab- lished institution in our school.

SJENTOR PLAY ll ICYICX SlS'l'liRS. a three-act farce comedy by Edith lillis, was produced by the senior class .Xpril 19, in the high school auditorium. The play, adapted from the llungarian, is based on the old custom of girls of a family having to be married in the order of their ages. The plot revolves around the XYidow Gyurkovics, who finds herself with seven daughters, four of them of marriagable age, and no eligible men in prospect. Mitzi, the fourth daughter and her mother's despair, goes to a masked ball in Vienna. .Xs a result she is expelled from the convent. but she meets Count lferenz llorkay. who falls in love with her. ln order that the matrimonial chances of the girls may be improved, Mrs. Gyurkovics reduces all their ages. Mitzi is reduced to the age of 15 but will be increased one year at the marriage of each of her elder sisters. lfcrenz llorkay again appears. Mitzi tells him her troubles. They make a bargain that, if he finds husbands for her three elder sisters within a year, she will pay him three kisses. The plot then develops through the intrigues they use to snare husl-ands for liatinka, Sari, and Ella. .X suitable young man is chosen as a husband for each of the girls, brought to the house. and urged to the point of proposing. ln working out her sisters happiness, Klitzi's own romance is almost wrecked. Satisfactory adjustments are made, however, and when Horkay comes to collect his reward, the play ends with everybody happy.

STUDENT CREATIONS Nothing Ever Happens l-lere tBy CARL GE.lGLEi'J Minnie Grady, haggard, unkempt. came out on the porch of her Van Pelt apartments in the mid-morning sunshine to sweep off the front steps. She paused in her hap-hazard work to smile a tooth- less smile to the roomer she knew as Mr. Barnhardt. Good morning, Mr. Barnhardtf' she muttered cynically, for in all the months Mr. Barnhardt had lived at Van Pelt he had never spoken one word to her and she had never heard him speak to any other living soul in her little world, mainly, Dixon street. She laughed to herself and busied herself with tying up the stray strands of her straw-colored hair. She worked for ten minutes at the hopeless job with- out making any stay in place when she spied jim, the postman. He was up Dixon street at Mrs. Johnson's place and she stared, open-mouthed while he went the entire block and returned down her side until he lay his pack down at her feet. He took a soiled handkerchief from his jeans and mopped his perspiring brow. Minnie smirked at him as she mused, Gee, jim, if I was a man I'd like to be a postman. You meet such interesting people. Oh, I don't know, Min, Jim repliedf' Don't hand me that, because Iknow, she insisted, and again said her oft- quoted phrase, Nothing ever happens here at the Van Pelt. No interesting people ever come to this apartment. ilim, thoroughly rested by now, laughed, picked up his pack and went on his weary way. Minnie sighed and went back into the rickety old house with the faded sign, Van Pelt Apartments, Mrs. Minnie Grady, Proprietor. She wended her way through the pile of odds and ends of furniture that she called the parlor to an even dingier room, the kitchen. Here she gathered a bucket of hot, dirty Water, a disraggled mop and an old scrub-brush and made her way up the dark stairs to the second floor where she began scrubbing the filthy floor. As she worked she came upon the room of Jim Trentwood, and his lovely, young wife. She thought for a moment that she heard a scream but said to herself. Nothing ever happens here at the Van Pelt. and went on about her work. Inside apartment three pretty young Marie Trentwood sat opposite her hus- band, sobbing, But, jim. you promised when you got out of prison you'd go straight and you've robbed again, only this time you're a murderer. Oh, for gosh sakes, Marie, I couldn't help killing that guard. I didn't want to! I just socked him over the head to keep him quiet but I must have hit him too hard. Pretty good write-up in the papers. eh. Mysterious Bandit, that's a laugh. Oh, Jim, how can you be so callous. Think of his wife and children. You'll be recognized and taken into custody any time you go out. Everybody knows who you are since that last edition of the paper. I can't go out, oh. why? Why did you do it? You'll go to prison againf, she wailed. No they won't he cried. I won't go to that hell-hole again, never. I'll kill myself. No, the agonized cry from his wife. She jumped to his side and beat him with her small, futile hands trying to keep him from turning on the gas. VVith an angry oath he turned to her. She screamed again as he struck her into merciful unconsciousness and turned on the gas. Minnie, busily scrubbing the floor outside. thought she heard a scream again but went on working thinking. Nothing ever happens here. XVorking on down the hall, in front of old Mr. johnston's door she thought she heard something strike the floor with a dull thud but went on meagerly scrub- bing at the dirtiest spots on the faded linoleum. Inside Mr. Johnston was reading a letter that had come several days ago. lt ran, In addition, Mr. Johnston. we find that we cannot use your services any longer due to your advanced age. Be- cause of his advanced age! Fifty-nine years old and a failure! He hadn't eaten since the night before and the gnawing pains of hunger that rose and fell in waves that seemed to say, You're old, you're old, you're oldl! The pains of hunger became so great that . . . Swiftly he crossed to the window, flung it wide and jumped out just before the window thumped down with a dull thud. Minnie glanced at the street outside and wondered why the people were gath- ering below near her apartment, but turned back to her menial tasks. On her way down she paused at the door of Gloria Golden, former stage star, distinctly hearing moans. She rapped on the door but a muffled Go away told her to go downstairs. Inside Gloria Golden lay across the wreck of the bed wracked with the burn- ing, searing pains of the poison she had taken. Today her last effort had failed. Proud Gloria Golden who once refused an offer of 35,000 to sing one song had actually begged a cheap producer to sing in a honky-tonk night club but he refused her. She groaned and fell back dead, a haggard old woman and only 31 years old. The refuse of iodine trickled down her painted cheek making an ugly stain on the grey sheets. Minnie clicked on the cheap little radio as she prepared her meager lunch. A news announcer warned, All residents of Doverville are warned to be careful of earthquakes. Minnie laughed and began to write a letter to her sister. The next day the men cleared away the mass of wreckage that was once the Van Peltf' The earthquakes had caused so much damage. They found Minnie, a letter clutched in her hands that read, Dear Hazelle: Nothing ever happens at the Van Peltf' success AHEAD Scene I Laboratory table in the high school lab room.

You've played around all year, but playing hasn't any place in Chem. It's dangerous. W'e'll be glad to do the stuff if you'll only watch. Edgar: And if anything goes wrong either the janitor loses his job for letting us in or we won't graduate--or both. So -let's get down to work and cut the comedy. Clay you just watch.

On the other side of Edgar is Clay- Dr. johnson QRising.j Now it gives me great pleasure to introduce to you the outstanding student of tonight's class, a boy whose every act has been one of con- sideration for others, whose scholastic and personal record are beyond reproach. I am very happy to present to you the Valedictorian of his class of 1940-Edgar Crampton. fEdgar rises uncertainly. Instantly Clay is by his side guiding him. Edgar's hand reaches out, touches the table's edge, glides along it. He turns to smile at Clay, and then turns his sightless eyes to his audience.j Edgar: Here we are facing the world for the first time as men and women, facing the world eager to be up and doing, using all our faculties, with our eyes on the far horizon and success ahead . . . fCurtainj A MERRY MIXUP may JACK 0'DELLl XVinter months are always cold, W'hi1e summer months are hotg Fall is always in between, And spring I like a lot.

F XYE are to consider age, the Colfax Chapter of the Future Farmers of America would be a mere tot, but the accomplishments of the two-year- old unit would indicate that it is a John Bunyan Jr. One of the first undertakings of the chapter during the school year was to take part in putting on the XYhitman County Fair at which it took first prize for its booth. The fair was hardly over when the boys donned their overalls one day and went out to dig the potatoes they had planted as a pro- ject. The result was a good yield and a net profit of 51550. Still greater things were done in the way of establishing a forage nurs- ery. ln this experimental plot 27 varieties of perennial grasses have been planted to test their suitability in this territory. lllans at present are to es- tablish another such plot. Other activities of the Chapter included a party for the fathers of the membersg an entertainment for the Pullman Chapter. The local chapter has 35 members. Officers include Archie Claassen, president: .Xl Teal, vice president: Don lllorasch. secretary, 'lon Hinnekamp, treasurer, l.eRoy Cocking, re- porter, and Jack Danaher, watch dog.

The team climaxed the season with a flashing offense consisting of trick passes, classy. reverses, hidden hall plays, and a wide open game, much to the fans delight. Vtiith plenty of good material return- ing, the prospects for the 1949 Campaign are exceedingly bright.

There were a lot of new faces this year but the new boys along with the experienced ones made a fine showing. The season got off to a slow and late start due to bad weather, but in spite of a week's turning out in the gym we were ready to go to the Inland lzmpire relays at XY.S.C. XVe didn't bring home any trophies because Coach Henry gave all the boys allowed by the rules a chance to run. You will find this true throughout the season, we didn't go out to win but to give every- one a chance to do his part and try and make his letter. VVe had no individual stars this year and more underclassmen had a chance to do there stuff. This year's squad was the best all around and the boys were more equally matched than any squad in the past has ever been. Pullman beat us in the county again this year but with such a few men leaving and a year's experience for the new men, Plll'1llE11l,S 18-year record for winning county meets should be broken. Meets for the year included: March 22-Inland limpire Relays at XY.S.C. April 13-Triangular Meet LColfax, Moscow. Lewistonj. April 19-john Rogers Relays. April 26-Quadrangular Meet tfolfax. St. john.

OXlNC' was a neu' sport at Colfax lligh School this year and from the results of our meets we are sure it has come to stay. ln meets in which boxers from Malden, Lacrosse, St. john, Pomeroy, and Pullman competed against the local fighters the worst showing our team ever made was a draw, that being with Pomeroy. Melvin Seeman, sophomore, brought us two championships--the district and state titles in the 165 pound class. Finalist in the 133-pound class at the state meet was johnny Lorch, who lost only two decisions during the entire season, and both of them were to the same man. ln the state fight, the contest was so close that the judges gave the edge to johnny's opponent by one point since they were unable to call the battle a draw. His losses were to the state champion from last year. All fights held at home this year were to raise money to buy the new boxing and wrestling mat and cover as well as other equipment. Financially we were successful as well as in the number of matches won.

CLASS HISTORY N THE year of 1936 a group of bold Frosh started its weary way through Ye Old Colfax High. Our first big thrill came when the dignified seniors escorted us to the theater for the traditional Senior-Frosh show. Soon we were welcomed with the Soph-Frosh party. Eventually we returned the favors. Throughout the entire year our students were noticed because of their exceptional talent and willingness to cooperate in all activities. The following fall we ascended the steps of C.H.S. as intelligent sopho- mores. XYe were determined to continue on with our good work of the former years. Our Soph-Frosh party convinced the guests that they were really now a part of this institution. Under the leadership of our officers and the expert guidance of our advisers, we gained many new laurels. Now for the jolly juniors. Our class play Tons of Money, under the capable direction of Miss Howard. proved to be one of the most outstanding comedies ever produced in our school. The Penguin Parade, the junior Prom, will always be remembered by those who attended it as a elaborate and enjoyable dance. During the year many of our students participated in school activities becoming outstanding in athletics, dramatics, and music. At last we are the mighty Seniors! NVe started off by treating the Freshman to a show. A high spot in the year's social events was the much talked about Senior Ball. which was carried out in the form of a modernistic ballroom. Climaxing our successes we gave the play Seven Sisters a farce in three acts. Four of our senior girls presented XVhite Iris in the one-act play contest. Our class has been noted for outstanding personalities. One member of our class went to the semi-finals in a national oratorical contest and another of our classmates won the county declamation contest. Many other students became outstanding in their particular field of activities. As the school year draws to a close, we will assemble for one last social gather- ing, the senior banquet. Then comes the more serious part, Baccalaureate and Commencement: and our high school days in C.H.S. will be just happy memories. May it be known that the class of '40 regrets bidding C.H.S. and its faculty farewell.
